@@godlovesyou84 thank you!!😊

@@kathiepaulk3687 when doing this stitch, the sides should be fairly straight. You definitely want to be using all the same yarn weights and watch your tension. Also, if using this stitch for a blanket, you would probably want to have a border, to help neaten up the edges and give a more cohesive look.

Thankyou, the sides just didn’t look straight on the video, but probably because it just wasn’t shown upclose. Love your video

@ they were not the straightest as my yarn weights were slightly different. I was just using some stash yarn to demonstrate the technique. If it was a project, I’d make sure the yarn was all the same weight. It makes a difference!😀

Not yet, but I plan to write one up. I hope to have written patterns for most of my video patterns. It is a goal I have for 2025. I will put the link up when it's ready.

So glad you are enjoying it!🥰

Thanks! I love it too! I have some project ideas for this stitch. ☺

@@territn8871 breakfast for dinner sounds yummy! I also pop popcorn from kernels too. With homemade butter and a little salt and it’s great! My dad used to grow popcorn when I was a kid. We just used a pot with some oil and a lid, no need for fancy equipment. The first time my kids saw me do it that way, they were amazed. 😂

@@Rita-cd9bj fits most adults. One of my friends made one for her husband and just bumped up a hook and used slightly heavier yarn for a larger size.

@@catherinebrochard7503 Good luck and I bet it will be beautiful.😊❤️

Thank you! It's Ice Yarns Picasso, not sure the name of the color way. ☺

Thank you!

I think so too!☺

You should! 🥰

Thank you! ☺

More great tips! Thank you. ☺

Only a pleasure.... we also lost my dad years back so know .... just my mom and i at home now We're also trying to use up what we have without wastage and without having to just keep buying Another thing we do is buy already roasted chickens and shred the meat and store in portions in freezer bags... and when a salmon special comes around we buy bulk, portion it in vacuum sealed bags and freeze until we want... usually the special is when we take the whole fish costs us like R700 but if you work it out per portion comes down to R100 or maybe less per meal for the 2 of us.... gotta change the way you think when buying bulk Your freezer will be your best friend

@@carrilyons5304 Absolutely! Get those deals when they are available and plan ahead. Before my husband passed we got a large freezer which has definitely been a blessing.

Great tips! Thank you. 🥰 I have made my own butter before, and I really should do it again. I am fortunate to have a local dairy close by that sells cream much cheaper than a regular grocery store. I'll need to pick some up and get to it!🙂

Youre lucky in that respect to have a dairy so close.... good chance they keep chickens too (or maybe some of the other farms nearby too) and you could get meat and eggs from them much cheaper too... and if you can get honey from a local bee keeper then you are covered for your super expensive grocery items Make your own salad dressing a combo of olive oil, red and/or white wine vinegar, dijon mustard honey or sugar (i prefer honey) salt and pepper and youll have made a most delicious salad dressing.... cant say on the ratios as im still working that out myself from a bottle i bought from a restaurant (had an ingredient list on the label)

That is so kind. Thank you!☺

Thank you for your kind words. I currently do not have my email listed. I am looking into buy a cup of coffee or something similar and may have that up in the near future.

Hi again Sonja. Last text - I promise. TY for your response. I finished the skirt and it is adorable. Litsa from Coco’s Crochet has other items planned for the rest of the year. This is all perfect timing as my four year old granddaughter moves out of state with her parents on Nee Year’s Day. I crocheted my sadness into the doll skirt - something I truly thought I could or would never do. I even ordered a dolly that looks like her as a model. By the time I see her again, I will hopefully have a wardrobe of doll clothes. You are a lovely, talented, patient, and creative teacher. TY again for giving me the gift of confidence.

@@1windycitygirl Long distance moves are always so hard! That sounds so lovely making a wardrobe for your granddaughter. I'm sure she will love it when she visits.

Thank you for your kind words and your support. 🥰While I do have an Etsy shop, I am currently not selling on there for various reasons. I may start it up again, still deciding. But I do sell my 18 inch doll patterns on Ravelry. (Not all of my 18 inch doll videos have a written pattern. I hope to do that this year) Ravelry is free to join the site and you can also find many other free and paid patterns on there as well. It is a great resource for crocheters and knitters. Here is a link to all of my 18 inch doll patterns on Ravelry: www.ravelry.com/bundles/patterns-for-american-girl-or-18-inch-dolls

Thank you! Happy New Year!☺

Thank you!☺

@@Riviere-qq3bn thank you!😊

You're so welcome!☺

Thank you!☺

Thank you! I love it too! I was going to donate it, but I liked it so much, I'm keeping it. I've already worn it a few times. It's nice and warm. ☺

@@moiraalix7962 your criticism is warranted although a bit harsh. I agree this was not one of my best tutorials. In my defense, I was very new to making tutorials on TH-cam and editing. We all have to start somewhere. I am always trying to learn and grow with this platform. Sometimes I get it right and sometimes I don’t.

@@jenreeves7684 Thank you!!😊

@@Robin31716 thank you!!😊

Thank you! ☺

I don't think all knit patterns translate well with Tunisian crochet, but there are some that do work. And yes to swatches! ☺I purposely keep "junk" yarn just for swatches and pattern prototypes. I don't want to use the "good" yarn if my idea isn't going to work.

I put some links in the description box. 🥰

That's wonderful!🥰

Thank you!🥰

You're welcome! I'm so glad it's working out for you!🥰

You're welcome! Glad I could help. ❤

Yes, keep trying! One of these days it is all going to click for you. It took me a LONG time to figure out crochet cables. I kept at it and one day it just all made sense. ☺
